Small Dog Car Seat - Waterproof Booster Bed for Small Breeds
She'll sleep the whole way.
Small dogs get the worst deal in a car. Down in the footwell or sliding across the seat, they see nothing and brace on every corner. This lifts your dog up to window height inside a soft, walled nest of their own - strapped to the seat in two minutes, and carried straight inside as a bed when you get home.
Why small dogs settle in it
1. Four padded walls. Deep sides and a full back give your dog a defined space instead of an open seat. They stop bracing and start sleeping.
2. Window height. Lifted up, they can watch the road. That alone stops most of the whining and the carsickness.
3. Nothing slides. Adjustable headrest straps and a non-slip base. Clip their harness to the internal lead and they stay put.
Give it two or three short trips. Most owners tell us the third one is quiet.
Car seat by day, dog bed by night
Unclip the straps, carry it inside by the handle, and it is a bed. Take it to the vet, to a hotel, to your parents' place at Christmas. Your dog sleeps somewhere that smells like home wherever you go.
Pick your size
| Size | Dimensions | Fits your dog |
|---|---|---|
| SMALL | 21.7 x 21.7 x 11.8 in (55 x 55 x 30 cm) |
1 small dog, up to 20 lb French Bulldog, Dachshund, Yorkie, Shih Tzu, Chihuahua, Bichon, Mini Poodle, Maltese |
| MEDIUM | 25.6 x 25.6 x 13.8 in (65 x 65 x 35 cm) |
1 medium dog, up to 35 lb - or 2 small dogs Cocker Spaniel, Corgi, Beagle, Mini Schnauzer, Cavalier King Charles, Westie |
Between two sizes? Take the bigger one. Dogs settle faster when they have room to turn around and stretch out.
Fits front seat or back seat
The two adjustable straps loop around your headrest posts and pull tight. Works on the rear bench of any car, and on the front passenger seat when the airbag is switched off. Two minutes, no tools.
Built to be lived in
- Water-resistant outer shell. Wipes clean in seconds. Mud, drool and wet paws stay off your seats.

- Non-slip base. Stays put on leather and cloth seats alike.
- Zipped side pocket. Treats, waste bags, a spare leash - within reach instead of rolling around the footwell.
- Carry handle and shoulder strap. Lift it out with your dog still curled up inside.
- Internal safety lead. Clips to your dog's harness, never their collar.
- Unzips flat for storage. Easy to assemble, easy to put away.
- REACH and California Prop 65 compliant. Tested for the chemicals that matter, because your dog sleeps on it.
Five colors, all in stock
Olive, Charcoal, Camel, Sage and Pink. Matte water-resistant shell, tonal straps, soft cushion inside.
Why your dog should not ride loose
An unrestrained dog is a distraction, and several states treat it that way. New Jersey requires pets to be restrained, with fines from $250 to $1,000. Hawaii and Rhode Island have their own rules. And Arizona, Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Wisconsin and Washington D.C. can cite an unrestrained pet under distracted-driving laws.
Always clip your dog's harness to the internal lead. This is a comfort and containment seat. It is not a crash-tested restraint.

Questions we get asked
Will it fit my car?
If your seat has headrest posts, yes. The straps loop over them and pull tight. It fits the rear bench of any car, and the front passenger seat when the airbag is off.
Can two small dogs share it?
In the Medium, yes - two dogs under 15 lb sit side by side comfortably. In the Small, one dog.
My dog gets carsick. Will this help?
Usually. Most carsick small dogs are down low with no view and nothing to brace against. This lifts them to window height inside a padded space. Give it two or three short trips.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the outside with a damp cloth - it is water-resistant. The cushion lifts out and washes. Air dry.
Is it safe for puppies and older dogs?
Yes. The padded base is easy on joints, and the high sides stop a puppy scrambling around while you drive.
Can I use it at home?
That is half the point. Unclip the straps, carry it inside by the handle, and it is a dog bed.
Does it come flat?
Yes - it ships compressed to keep shipping affordable. Fluff the cushions for a few minutes and leave it a few hours, and it takes its full shape.
What if my dog hates it?
Send it back within 30 days and we refund you. Used, washed, chewed on - it does not matter.
